Washing
Rinse the rice in a sieve three times, or until the water runs clear. For fluffier rice, the rice should be soaked for at least 15 minutes prior to cooking.

Cooking
Add the water and salt to a saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the rice and stir, letting the water come to a boil again. Place the lid on the saucepan and lower the heat to a simmer.

You may also leave it as is if you don't like mashed rice. Transfer rice to a large bowl and let it cool completely.
